This year's fantastic collection of pieces is a bit different than our previous ones in terms of characters and pairings and so forth. In case anyone missed them, the 2011 stats are in this post.

Before we get to the big reveal, we're going to take just a moment to extend some very heartfelt thank yous. Once again, Kinky Kristmas was a smashing success, and none of it could have been possible without you.

- Thank you to everyone, both members and watchers, who read, viewed, commented, and recced throughout December. We're all here for the interaction with like-minded fans, so without people like you, there'd be no Kinky Kristmas or Daily Deviant or HP fandom at all. I think most of us have noticed that there's been a bit of a drop off in commenting across fandom over the last year or two. Nonetheless, this year's KK generated more than 1,200 comments on its 70 pieces, and we've had enough recs to have 37 pieces (one more than last year!) listed in the Daily Snitch!! We truly cannot thank you all enough.

- Second, huge thanks to the members and watchers who contributed fic and art to this year's event. You all clearly put your collective best foot forward, as the response proves. A standing ovation to you all.

We're positively thrilled with the results of this year's celebration, and we hope you had a fantastic time reading and viewing. This fandom and the brilliant and talented individuals who comprise it are amazing. ♥

Title: One Down, Six To GoCharacters/Pairings: Arthur/BillRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Incest, cross-gen, blowjobsOther Warnings/Content: /Artist's Notes: Arthur has a bit of a special kink... and plans on working his way through all his boys... and girl ;) It was really hard to pick a pairing because I love all the Weasleys. But in the end, I went with Bill because... well, I'm not really sure why. If I'd had more time, I might have drawn all the pairings you requested, but since this was a pinch-hit, it wasn't possible. Hope you like it! :)Art Preview:

Title: Accidents Will HappenCharacters/Pairings: James Sirius Potter/Albus Severus PotterRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: First time, bottom!Albus, dirty talkOther Warnings/Content: Incest, angst, underage sex (James is 17, Albus 16).Word Count: 3,819 wordsSummary/Description: As the evening of the annual Potter-Weasley Christmas party approaches, James finds himself frustrated with anyone who thinks he could ever harm his younger brother (on purpose). Author's Notes: Title from Elvis Costello's "Accidents Will Happen," which also provides the source for the song lyrics quoted at the outset. Many thanks to the fantastic mods for their patience, and for making this Kinky Kristmas merry and deviant and bright. To my prompter, I really hope you enjoy this.

Title: Of Alcohol and ResolutionsCharacters/Pairings: James/SiriusRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Infidelity, semi-public sexOther Warnings/Content: Oral, dirty talk, excessively long sentences.Word Count: 2250Summary/Description: I was drunk, and randy, and frustrated, and pissed, and so bloody sick of watching James and Lily all over each other. So I made the most stupid New Year Resolution in the history of the wizarding kind.

Title: Earth-boundCharacters/Pairings: Sprout/LunaRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: D/s, Bondage, Watersports, Teacher/studentOther Warnings/Content: Object insertion and fat appreciationWord Count: 2070Summary/Description: Luna needs to heal in the years after the war, to find a place to live again.Author's Notes: Oh lovely Wisher, I jumped on this one as soon as I saw your request for fat appreciation. There's just not enough attention and love given the the beautiful bounty of a large woman. I hope I've done that justice, especially since the fic went its own way and refused your request for some Santa references. Instead, we have Sprout much as an earth goddess, which, let's be honest, is a hell of a lot sexier than old St. Nick. :P This is also, partially, as a result of recently teaching The Secret Garden.Additional adoration and love to our beloved Rowan who had to deal with my extreme tardiness on submitting this. Life got massively in the way, but I was determined to finish this.

Title: My Strange AddictionCharacters/Pairings: Bill/LavenderRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: first time, massageArtist's Notes: Lavender has a Weasley addiction, and she sets her sights on the next fix. Hope you like it!Art Preview:

Title: A Toy at ChristmasCharacters/Pairings: Barty Crouch Jr.-as-Moody/Draco, implied Moody/FlitwickRating: RKinks/Themes Included: ObjectificationOther Warnings/Content: underage, D/s, brattiness, teacher/student, underage, risk of exposure, silk pants, touch of hatesex, underageWord Count: 2560Summary/Description: Nothing turns Draco on more than being treated like a sex toy. And in the guise of his fourth-year Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Barty Crouch is only too happy to treat him that way.Author's Notes: My dear recipient, you did say any male character. ;p Barty took over the narration a lot more than I was intending – I'm tempted to find a month where I can do a remix from Draco's point of view like the story was actually meant to be! And Barty likes his adjectives too much.

Title: Hate is...Characters/Pairings: Sirius/SeverusRating: RKinks/Themes Included: First time, frottage, half dressed sex Other Warnings/Content: Marauder Era [Characters are 7th year/over the age of 18.]Artist's Notes: Well, I wasn't able to incorporate the prompt, "an unexpected gift", but I hope this can be a good enough gift to the prompter. Happy Holidays!Art Preview:

Title: My Pretty PetCharacters/Pairings: Godric/SalazarRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Bondage, D/sOther Warnings/Content: Someone is watchingSummary/Description: Prompt: Godric is called to battle rebellious hill tribes in the south/west (think Wales). He returns with a unique war-prize: a pale skinned, dark-haired youth (16-18) of exceptional beauty. His name? Salazar Slytherin. Before he went off to war, Godric's chief ambition & interest was in building Hogwarts. Now, however, his main interest seems to be spending as much time as possible in bed with young Salazar. Disturbed by this behavior, Rowena decides to investigate. Just what kind of hold does this beautiful boy have over Godric? And which of them is really the master or the slave? Big bonus points for Voyeur!Rowena getting an eyeful of what goes on in the bedchamber, and for Salazar manipulating Godric while allowing himself to be dominated. Artist's Notes: Alas my more polished version died in a photoshop crash this week. I hope the essence of your prompt is still fullfilled, Dear Deviant.

Title: I've been an awful good girlCharacters/Pairings: Neville Longbottom/Lavender BrownRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Stockings (on Lavender), Confident Neville (somewhat), Dirty talk (or an attempt at it), semi-public sex (they're in a public place), role play, spanking, oral, fingeringOther Warnings/Content: Costumes, Santa fetish, Love/lust potionWord Count: 5021Summary/Description: Lavender has pretty much suckered Neville into agreeing to be a Department Store Santa for Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes, but she's not just doing it for the children… or the hike in sales. She has her own agenda.Author's Notes: I hope you liked what I did with your request for wryly humorous, sexy Father Christmas hats. I'm told that "Santa" has become fairly regular across the pond as well, so during the times that Father Christmas seemed long and clunky, I went with Santa. The title is a line from the song Santa Baby

Title: Challenge AcceptedCharacters/Pairings: Snape/McGonagallRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Bondage, corsets, D/sOther Warnings/Content: Implied use of riding crop [Characters represented are over the age of 18... some more so than others.]Artist's Notes: This is not my usual fare but the pairing is one I have a soft spot for.

To my recipient, Happy Kinky Kristmas, and I hope this didn't venture to far into the dark side for you. Thank you for letting me tell a story that has been lurking in the back of my mind since 2007.

Title: Sweet DistractionCharacters/Pairings: Harry/Pansy, background Draco/Astoria and Blaise/HannahRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Pegging, fingering, semi-public sexOther Warnings/Content:Word Count: 2,922Summary/Description: Harry always finds the Malfoy Christmas Ball rather boring, and distracts his wife with a lust charm while she's trying to converse with friends.

Word Count: ~4kSummary/Description: All work and no play makes Minerva a terribly dull gay.Author's Notes: Mystery Recipient, I hope you enjoy this! While I wouldn't necessarily consider this a comedy piece (which I know you didn't want!), Pomona made it perfectly clear that Minerva was not to take herself too seriously. I hope the mix of sternness and tenderness balances the humour for you!

Title: A life in dreamsCharacters/Pairings: Remus/SiriusRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: Arousal by watching someone sleepOther Warnings/Content: Masturbation, anal. And some voyeurism, I guess?

Title:?????Characters: Severus Snape/Narcissa Malfoy/Minerva McGonagall/Tom Riddle, Jr/NaginiRating: NC-17Kinks/Themes Included: corsets, clothing!porn, kinky gadgetry, bestialityOther Content: Steampunk!AU, fivesome, voyeurism. Prompt: "the dawn of a new age"Word Count: ~~15,000Summary/Description: It's 1894, the dawn of a new age, and Severus Snape, shipping clerk, wants a bit more magic in his world. But few know better than he that life is always a big question mark.Author's Notes: Your character list really intrigued me, Mystery Member, and by the time I saw "steampunk" and "corsets," I had no question which KK prompt I was going to claim. I wanted the story to be kinky and atmospheric, but I didn't end up with exactly the kinks and atmosphere I intended when I started. Thus it's probably not as "shuddery" as you might have wished. And as you see by the word count, it's a monster of a fic. But I hope you'll enjoy it all the same.

As I wrote, I was inspired (in different ways, at different stages) by the following pieces of fanart:
